Riess Binks Double Before Dinner
Level 13
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Dejan Pustoslemsek, Mark Teltscher, Aleksandar Tomovic and Vladimir Troyanovskiy have all been eliminated in the last 15 minutes before the dinner break. In the very last hand of the level, Ryan Riess then scored a big double at the expense of Oliver Weis.
After an open-raise to 7,500, Weis three-bet to 22,500 in the small blind and Riess four-bet to 48,000 in the big blind. The initial raiser quickly folded, and Weis then moved all in with just a few seconds left on his shot clock. Riess instantly called and Weis said "I knew it" when he saw Riess' cards.
Ryan Riess: 
Oliver Weis: 
The board came 
and the better pocket pair held up for Riess, who doubled for 170,400.
